Cross with a stone plinth (Mikulášovice – village centre)

This massive 19th-century granite cross stands near the MIKOV factory in Mikulášovice.

Restoration work refitted the gilded cast of Jesus Christ and a new, less common cast-iron angel onto the cast-iron cross. There used to be similar silhouettes on the cross in the past, to disguise damage to the original cross. A bracket for a lantern was added. The remnants of the original fence were replaced with new fencing. The fence was rebuilt using the original techniques – by hand, using wrought-iron.
